Happy holidays! A sometimes stressful time for couples going into the new year! This week, we're interviewing Kaley Klemp, the co-author of The 80-80 Marriage, about coming at relationships with radical generosity rather than "fairness" and how to structure money in a long-term relationship or marriage. Why do partners resent each others' successes instead of seeing all achievements as good for the team? And how do you still protect your own assets in this kind of partnership? Plus, what is KaJoNa? Then, Gaby talks to dating coach Damona Hoffman about paying for premium dating accounts, the idea of the "gold digger" vs. the "breadwinner" (thanks Kacey Musgraves!) and why she thinks true love is more important than finances in the modern era.

Then, we talk about Biden's last minute student loan repayment pause extension, the end of the child tax credit, and a listener's critique on what really needs to change in the wake of the Amazon warehouse deaths -- tornado safety. Finally, a wealthy woman who is giving away her fortune, the communist urge to wear a jumpsuit every day, and preventing student loan debt by asking colleges to just LOWER tuition prices.

Gaby explores the world of fast fashion and greenwashing with Overdressed author and Remake and PayUp activist Elizabeth L. Cline. With all these celebrities shilling for Shein, Fashion Nova, and other fast fashion brands, these companies are gaining into the billions with terrible garment worker practices, huge environmental waste and by stealing designs from marginalized artists. (Okay, that last one is just Gaby's personal pet peeve.) Then, Gaby talks to actress Jasika Nicole (Fringe, The Good Doctor) who makes all her own clothing - yes, even her shoes and undergarments - about why she goes to these lengths, how you can sew your own clothing, and the pros and cons of thrifting.
